  1. Data are presented as Mean ± SEM (n = 4). Values represent the glucose concentration (μmol) in dialysate. Mean values marked with an asterisk (*) were significantly different from those of respective control groups (p < 0.05) (derived from repeated-measures ANOVA and adjusted using Bonferroni correction).
